It starts out slow but the story line draws you in. The only reason for the 4 star and not 5 was the graphics were so good except for the characters very unrealistic. ### 3/5 — Infelizmente não é gratuito como diz *2025-04-22, version 1.11.10* Eu gostei do jogo porém depois de jogar um pouco vc é obrigado a comprar o restante do jogo. Informação que deveria ser informada no App Store ### 4/5 — Nice graphics *2025-03-17, version 1.11.10* Good graphics and story. ### 3/5 — Weak puzzles *2025-03-09, version 1.11.10* There is much too much dialog in this game and the puzzles are weak. ### 3/5 — Facil y breve *2025-01-22, version 1.11.7* Entretenido pero muy fácil y muy corto. Te lo terminas en una tarde. ### 3/5 — mysteries Hotel *2024-10-26* I would rate this game at most a 3 - for many reasons - not worth ther cost - no hidden object games - no map you need to be dependent on hint for directions - the games are not very challenging ### 4/5 — brightstone *2024-09-13, version 1.11.7* Like this app but too short ### 4/5 — fun game *2024-09-07, version 1.11.7* fun gamae ### 4/5 — muy interesante *2024-05-14, version 1.11.7* aun no he visto mucho espero que pueda seguir el juego bastante rato ### 3/5 — for the money not great *2024-04-12* For the money to be paid for this, I was not happy. It was too short of a story. ### 3/5 — It's a trap! *2024-04-10, version 1.11.7* I was just starting to enjoy myself when the game stopped and I had to pay to unlock the rest of it. Ok, but the price wasn't visible so guess what? I'm not unlocking a game when I have no idea what I'm paying!! I'd rather have it up front: play free for an hour then pay X amount, like Big Fish Games does. I also had to force quit the game as it wouldn't let me exit!! So many footsteps back and forth were a pain and very annoying when you click on something and nothing happens, but it unlocks later so you click on it again and THEN it goes in your inventory. Surely let us collect the items anyway and then we find the right time to use them. ### 3/5 — Great Game *2024-04-07, version 1.11.7* graphics are a bit blurry but so fun! ### 3/5 — Good story *2024-01-02, version 1.11.6* The story is interesting, but for the price the game is pretty short compared to others in the same genre such as the Broken Sword series or Monkey Island. It just doesn’t have the same finesse or detail. ### 4/5 — Bof *2023-10-26, version 1.11.6* Trop verbeux. Je préfère jouer à Lost Lands, c'est beaucoup plus intéressant. ## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated) ### 1/5 — Unsinnig *2025-12-16, version 1.11.12* Völlig an Haaren herbeigezogener unlogischer Ablauf ### 1/5 — Weak puzzles *2025-12-03, version 1.11.12* There is much too much dialog in this game and the puzzles are weak. Movements are not intuitive! ### 1/5 — Boring *2024-04-12, version 1.11.7* Outnof all the games bt Catella, sorry to say this was the worst. Story is uninteresting. ### 1/5 — Waste of money *2023-11-07, version 1.11.6* Got so far and can’t go any further because can’t see all inventory also took payment twice 🤬 ### 1/5 — Zu teuer…. *2023-04-08, version 1.11.2* Die Rätsel sind viel zu leicht und auch sehr wenige zu lösen, sehr viel Text zu lesen und plötzlich war es aus…der Preis ist absolut nicht gerechtfertigt…lasst die Finger davon…bin sehr enttäuscht… ### 1/5 — Horrible *2022-07-20* Do NOT BUY i want my money back. I have been playing mystery games and this is bad and had to navigate. Graphic are not good and it moves too slow. ### 1/5 — barely anything to play *2022-05-16* I was reallly starting to enjoy this game and I was up at the part when you went down the secret passageway, and it told me to pay for the rest of it. Disappointing, I thought it would be a fun game for free. Not for me. Don't reccomend. ### 1/5 — The Worst *2022-03-08, version 1.11.0* This is a terrible game. Slooooooooow. Boooooooooring. Hitting hint as often as you can. Beyond tedious. Long, boring and SILENT conversations…(there is no narration beyond the opening scene) ### 2/5 — Started out with promise *2022-10-21* I could have lived with the weak graphics were it not for the eventual introduction of a back-and-forth dialogue that dominated the story and eventually led to a predictable ending. Characters were trite and undeveloped. HOPs would have helped. ### 2/5 — Very slow moving *2022-05-30* There’s a lot of conversation going on, which adds to the story but is kind of boring. You’ll be doing tons of tapping trying to figure out the next step and the hint button will be your best friend. One pet peeve of mine found extensively here is that you’ll see an item sitting around that you can’t pick up. But after “something” happens you can go back and retrieve it. This isn’t intuitive and makes the game much more confusing. Anyway, I’m not a fan of this one. ## Most praised reviews (10 highest-rated) ### 5/5 — fun game *2026-02-03, version 1.11.12* Brilliant! loved every minute of this game! thanks so much for the talented creators. ### 5/5 — Rätselspass pur *2025-06-16, version 1.11.10* Das Spiel ist sehr gut aufgebaut, es macht Spaß die jeweiligen Rätsel zu lösen um weiter voran zu kommen.
